Nate Robinson has benefited from a full training camp. Marquis Daniels is playing like the Quis of November and December of 2009. And Semih Erden is surpassing all expectations. What's not to like about this 2010-11 Celtics? Posted by P34

The ability to match up with another team with equally talented starting 5 when their top guys can easily play 40 mins a game. That is the key. Cover that and this could be the best Celtics team in the last 30 years.

I agree with Che,for probably the first,that the new rule is solely to fix games. Stern really has to go,he's a criminal he has fixing games for about 25 years now,he's ruining the NBA.Posted by Rajon-Hondo

Go find another sport to enjoy... unless your aim is to try to ruin NBA basketball for the vast majority of us here at BDC.

In Response to Re: So Far So Good : You are a fraud NBA fan. You think the game is fixed. At least have the sack to find another sport that you think is not fixed. How I feel about Rondo does not effect my loyalty to the NBA and to the Celtics. PudPosted by puddinpuddin

You are simply a fraud, through out the years you hated the celtics quarterback. When Rondo was improving, you can't handle it and when you are getting a lot of hits, you changed to PUD ?Everyone knows you just registered this name.

At least I don't hide and expressed my opinion in the table. No hiding and not a coward and change my cigar.

I think our biggest problem is going to be Shaq's defense. He is too slow. I really think the team plays better when he is not in the lineup.Posted by Kirk6

I see your point about Shaq. I see his value in the low post. When hes in the game (which I doubt is much more than 15 mins) we need to feed his post game. Hes really unstoppable there and a decent passer too. We need to take advantage of his bulk on offense (scoring, causing fouls etc) cause we sometimes pay a price on the other end. Quid pro quo.

Im also hoping JO gets in shape and finds his lift. He seems flatfooted and barely able to dunk.

Both Shaq & JO give me reason to believe Erden will get some minutes. He shows some flashes but hes not there yet.

Che:

On 8/24/10, you post the following:"Pud I know all along your assessment on Rondo was right."

So who exactly is the FRAUD you are accusing of hating on the Celtic quarterback?

Get your story straight.... and lay off of those Phillies Blunts for a while.

Yeah I said that but I don't hate him with passion like you do. There at times Rondo improving in many different ways to make out on other weaknesses like outside shooting and FG. Currently without him, Celtics will not survive a playoff or getting to the playoff.The problem with you, your mind is set to hate the guy regardless.

Likewise, you hate me by saying NBA has a lot of flaws & procedural stupid rules that change the flavor of the game. It's only an opinion and there are more people out there who believes in my opinion, so you take or leave it.

Yep, you can also say your gripes with Rondo was only an opinion. Your emotion with Rondo is locked and there is no room for you to adjust.

You should have done it before you bothered me. Be my guess.I have no respect on people like runarunarun and pudpudpdin who hides and cant take the heat. Fans should ban people who are hiding, changing their names.....oh, go back to your stupid regular handle instead of PUD.
